By design in fact as a result of a Sashiko review as I recall. Context 
window between runs seems required for this tool.

Yeah, I guess a zero settle count should be legitimate.

clock-names are required in the schema but sure I add a check for this.

This ping-pong with this tool is taking forever, I need to figure out 
how to run this locally to stop wasting my own time.
